The design of the extension is inspired by Backdrop (now Ambient/Daydream) on the Google Chromecast.
Users can choose to have the weather displayed with the original grayscale Backdrop icons or the new colorized Ambient icons.
We also try to keep the extension as lightweight as possible and thus do not include the wallpapers in the extension.
